'The Voice' Renewed Through Season 13, Gwen Stefani to Return for Season 12
NBC is doubling down on its hit singing competition series "The Voice," renewing the show for two more seasons.
That means that the reality series will stick around for season 12 and season 13, and in keeping with its tradition of rotating coaches, will see the return of Gwen Stefani in season 12. She'll swap out with Miley Cyrus, who will sit out season 12, but has been confirmed to return for season 13.
Perennial coaches Adam Levine and Blake Shelton will return for season 12, as will Alicia Keys, a new addition for this current 11th season along with Cyrus. No official coaching lineup has been announced for season 13 yet, so it's unclear if Keys will also stick with the show through then. As ever, host Carson Daly will be back to emcee the proceedings for both new seasons, as he's done since the series premiered back in 2011.
"We can't wait to experience the unique chemistry and energy Gwen, Alicia, Blake and Adam will bring to Season 12," said Paul Telegdy, president of the alternative and reality group for NBC Entertainment, in a statement. "With Miley returning for Season 13, we're truly ecstatic about the unmatched musical know-how and talent coming together in our coming seasons."
Season 11 of "The Voice," featuring coaches Levine, Shelton, Cyrus, and Keys, is currently airing now on NBC.
